Marie Reed is also a Title 1 school, meaning that at least 40% of Marie Reed students qualify for free or reduced cost meals. As such, the school receives additional federal funding to help ensure that all children meet challenging academic standards. This funding provides all students free breakfast and lunch, significantly subsidized after-school programming, and increased focus on family engagement.
